BLOCKING THE COURTS.
No Money Out of Which to Pay Jurors
and Witnesses.

The failure of the deficiency appropriation
bill to become law through want of time to
engross 1t will soon be showing the damage
this slip up has caused. Among the clauses In
the bill were the following:
For fees of jurors Of ftheiUnitedStates courts
si5,6tO" @ : ''''''' III 'H' "''' '''' -0''O'
"For fee of witnesses attending United States
courts other than courts of United States com.
These two clauses will be likely to affect
every United States court throughout the
country, and more than likely majority of
run on short time and small margin. In this
District 1t is becoming very apparent that the
courts, especially the criminal court, will have
to suspend trying cases or Operate on the credit
system. The fund out of which witnesses are
paid has become entirely exhausted and that
for jurors Is getting very low. Whether the
Department OF Justice will be able to furnish
Marshal Wilson with any more money to carry
the courts through the balance of this fiscal
year is becoming exceedingly do Ibtiul. He
may obtain small allowance, but IL is quite
evident that IL will not he sufficient To propel
the legal machinery any great length of time.
In this connection there Is another matter to
he considered. Under the law the mar
shel cannot promise TO pay either jurors or
Is liGb'e TO severe punishment for so dol 3.
All that can lie done is what has been d ne
heretofore. The jurors can be brought il,u
court and the witnesses can be summoned, but
nothing will be said about pay except they
may be told that no promises can be made.
They must take their chances OF getting pay
from the government and all they will re-
ceive will be Il certificate showing their at
tendance in the court. 4 new term of the
criminal court begins to-day, but no cases
have been assigned for trial and will not be
